Concept designs released for Byford Skate Park – Stage 2 upgrades

The Byford Skate Park – Stage 2 upgrades have reached a significant milestone, with the latest concept designs now available for public comment.

Residents are invited to review the concept designs and have their say via the Shire’s Your Say SJ page before the public comment period closes on Wednesday, 14 June 2023.

Two separate concepts have been developed by expert designers Skate Sculpture, featuring a collection of new skateable elements as well as seating and lighting upgrades for the precinct.

The new concepts were launched at the Shire’s second Byford Skate Park workshop on Tuesday, 24 May, with 50 of the suburb’s eager young skaters providing feedback on what they would like to see included in the upgrades.

Following this community consultation period and once a concept design has been decided upon, the project will advance to the detailed design stage before ultimately being presented to Council for comment.

The Byford Skate Park – Stage 2 upgrades are an $800,000 project funded by the State Government through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries.
